So these Republican Senators are lying?
Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) on Tuesday criticized President Trump’s decision to pardon or commute the sentences of individuals who were convicted of assaulting police officers during the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.

“I don’t think that the approach of a blanket pardon that includes those who caused harm, physical harm to our police officers, to others, that resulted in violence — I’m disappointed to see that. And I do fear the message that is sent to these great men and women who stood by us,” Murkowski told reporters as she walked into a Republican meeting outside the Senate chamber.

Cassidy offered his own strong statement of disapproval about pardoning people who assaulted police officers four years ago in an effort to stop the certification of former President Biden’s victory in the 2020 election.

“It’s not right. People who assault police officers — if they do the crime, they should do the time,” Cassidy said.

Cassidy described himself as a “big ‘Back the Blue’ guy,” referring to his record of supporting law enforcement.

Pretty much everything you have said politically.

I'm not one to generally engage in political arguments, as that is pointless, especially these days.

And especially if it's outside the OT.

I do not engage in ad hominem attacks. I deal only in the facts, regardless of politics or ideology.

I know others are cool with it...and I am fine with that...but this is a useless discussion, especially if all sides refuse to palaver in good faith, which is what real discourse requires.

There are many issues with January 6th.... especially with the video evidence, and the destruction of all other. It has been confirmed that there were over 20 informants there stirring up trouble and trying to incite....and most protesters behaved and refused. Period.

Just read the real info.....not news stories ...read the investigation report. Written by those tasked to do so.

See, the word itself has never changed its meaning: To impede or delay the process of.

What changed is our understanding of mental disabilities. There isn't a thing "retarding" the mental faculties of people with disabilities, meaning it's not something we can just fix. That is why we started distancing that word from mental disabilities.

Normal people can absolutely qualify though. Some people have their ability to understand and rationalize impeded upon, whether it's from multiple head injuries, drug abuse, or political or religious affiliation. Some people are absolutely fucking retarded.
 
So specifically, you support attacking cops guarding the US Capitol?

are they special because of their job? I’m retired law enforcement btw… a blanket question can’t be answered. Let me ask you a similar question…why? I will go ahead and answer it…because…
